[comisar]

I am ignoring this.
(the sure way to make people come in is to mark something that way! )

Ignorance is bliss.

third time charm? (how the heck do I get the custome avatar to work??)

ok, uploaded the gif, copy/paste into the url thingy at profile at the new avatar at the bottoml. selected 'use this avatar' or somesuch. nothing happening (boy do I feel newbie again )

If you uploaded it onto the upload section on the. You'll notice on the URL code that it gives you, it'll have [ URL= whatever.com/whatever.gif ] [/ url ] (But without the spaces) to get it to work you'll have to take off the "URL=" and the "/URL" that way it only shows "http://www.shrapnelgames.com/whateveryourimgfilenameis.gif"... Doing that SHOULD make it work. If not then uhh I don't know...

Did you remember to hit the SET URL button?

My avatar was 32x32 and worked fine.

Deathstalker, Have you tried making any new Posts since you setup the avatar? I didn't start seeing mine until I did. Even hitting refresh didn't work. Not sure about editing a previous post. Maybe that doesn't do it either. Try a new post.

Georgig, the link to your avatar isn't working. You can upload it to Shrapnel using the file upload form in the scenario forum and then link to that. It might work better.

so this is now the official "test your avatar" thread?

ok, testing then....

/edit : here is the "add your avatar walkthrough" " " (smilie with ears)

first you go to the "my profile" link below the new thread and reply buttons.Then you select View/Update profile, after that you scroll down to the avatar setting, and choose Select different avatar image, a new window will show. You can Choose one of the premade avatar, or fill in your own url in the textbox below, if you choose your own image, then after inserting the url, click on "set url", and then on "select this avatar", then close the window...or it closes itself...i forgot..anyway, get rid of that window.
Then scroll all the way down in your profile page, anbd select Update Profile...and your done.

The file your trying to use is either named wrong or not on the geocities server. It can't find c.h.a.o.s..gif
